15 TPH Chromite Tailing Process Plant in South Africa

JXSC has designed a complete flowchart and provides a full set of processing plant machines & all accessories for the chromite tailing process plant in South Africa. We offer a detailed layout design with base construction drawings accordingly.

Resumen del proyecto
Jiangxi JXSC Mining Machinery Co., Ltd. successfully designed, manufactured, and installed a 15TPH chrome tailing process plant in South Africa. This gravity separation plant specializes in recovering chrome concentrate from discarded tailings, offering an efficient and environmentally friendly solution for chrome mining operations.

The plant features a straightforward layout, easy maintenance, and high recovery rates, making it a preferred choice among chrome miners in South Africa and Zimbabwe.

Customer Requirements
The client sought a cost-effective and reliable processing solution capable of:

• Reprocessing chrome tailings (waste material)
• Maximizing chrome recovery rates (>80%)
• Minimizing water and energy consumption
• Adapting to varying feedstock conditions

1. What's the difference between the trommel scrubber and trommel screen?
The trommel scrubber is used for washing raw materials with sticky clay, while the trommel screen is used for cleaning raw materials with normal sand and soil.

2. Why does the spiral chute need two stages?
The mid concentrate from the first stage spiral chute will go to the second stage spiral chute, which will make the chrome concentrate purer.

3. Why does the concentrate from the spiral chute need to go to the shaking table?
If the chrome concentrate needs to achieve a higher grade, the shaking table will be necessary. It relies on the dual action of reciprocating vibration of the bed surface and transverse water flow washing to finely stratify minerals according to density, grain size, and shape.

4. How to dewater the concentrate?
The concentrate slurry can be pumped to the hydro cyclone for dewatering and recycling the water.

5. What is the particle size requirement for the feed ore?
The maximum feeding size of the trommel is 100 mm; it has big waste stones over 100mm, so a 100mm grizzly bar can be made on the hopper to remove the big waste stones. 

6. What's the water consumption of the whole line of machines?
The total water consumption will need approximately 50 m³ per hour, mainly for feeding water to the trommel screen and shaking table. The water consumption for the trommel screen is 2 times the capacity, for the shaking table is 2-3 m³ per hour per set.

7. Qué cromo recovery rate can be achieved?
The gravity recovery rate can reach 80–85%, final result will depend on the raw materials’conditions.
